We characterize the growth by low energy electron microscopy. Using selected-area diffraction and intensity-versus-voltage spectroscopy, we detect two distinct phases which are assigned as wustite and magnetite. Spin-polarized low energy electron microscopy reveals magnetic domain patterns in the magnetite phase at room temperature.engStructure and magnetism in ultrathin iron oxides characterized by low energy electron microscopyjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1088/0953-8984/21/31/314011http://iopscience.iop.orghttp://arxiv.org/abs/0812.5049open access538.9Verwey transitionEpitaxial-GrowthFilmsRu(0001)SurfaceFe_3O_4PolarizationChemistryFeFísica de materiales
